High instep, high arch and slightly wider forefoot here - lots of trial and error! I feel you. Here's a few I've liked:
\- Vomero Plus (a touch narrow in the toe box, but otherwise works really well)
\- TYR Maverick - My current favorite shoe, and my daily. Anatomic toebox, flexible offer and great lockdown with 44m drop in a lightweight package.
\- EVO SL - Fits really well, but is best for fast runs and not the most stable. Not a beginning shoe, IMO (no idea your running journey). Frequently on sale for \~$100.
\- Adidas Supernova Prima - Excellent fit and foam, very balanced daily trainer.
\- NB SC Elite V4 and V5 - More of a racing shoe, but also suitable for speed work and long runs. Does have a carbon fiber plate, but the V4 version is one of the least aggressive race shoes out there.
Hope this helps!
The P35 is a nice step forward for them. In my opinion, it’s still not on the level or the best foams from many of the other well-established brands.
I’m not an Altra hater. I put probably 600+ miles on 2 pairs of Experience Flows.
Do you have a local running store with a treadmill? I feel like this would be best for trying on several options to see what feels best. As a fellow forefoot striker, my recent favorites in terms of daily trainers have been Novablast 5, Supernova Prima, WaveRider 29, and On Cloudeclipse. If you're looking to do some fast stuff, I'd check out the Evo SL, Brooks Hyperion 3, and Puma Nitro Elite 3.
Hey OP. I have very flat feet and also pronate quite a lot. I'm currently using the Adidas Supernova Prima as my go to stability shoe for long and easy runs. Still shopping around for a race day shoe, so if you find anything that works for you please let me know
The Supernova’s from Adidas could be perfect. They all stability elements. The rise and prima are perfect daily trainer with perfect stability, a great upper and massive energy return with 10mm drop. The prima is the max cushioned rise with 8mm drop. Nearly as stable as the rise but a bit softer.
Less frequently recommended, but solid shoe: Adidas Supernova Prima. First edition is still out there on sale and has a roomier upper than the Prima 2. You can also try the Rise, which is the lower stack sister.
I think few peoples were saying that it does soften up but it never really did it for me. Still have a pair now and took it off again last week and ended up with knee pain on my first run.
Done few longer runs in past -14-16km and god my feet were broken for 2-3 days after. It just never worked for me.
I don’t necessarily need a lot of stability but I do lot of easy running and anything softer/unstable is causing some discomfort / ankle pain after couple of weeks. Use supernova prima mainly now for easy and not had any problems at all - not stability shoe necessarily but presto stable and not that soft either.
Used GT2000, Kayano 30 saucony guide before - never had same problems like in Tempus.

Marathon workhorse, but loud and clunky at slow paces.
